Jan 12 Antiwar Democrat Tulsi Gabbard Announces 2020 Run

Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, D-Hawaii, said Friday she will run for president in 2020.

"I have decided to run and will be making a formal announcement within the next week," she said in an interview for CNN's "The Van Jones Show."

Considered a liberal rising star in her party, Gabbard served as a vice chair of the Democratic National Committee, but resigned in February 2016 amid rising tensions with then-DNC chairwoman Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla. Upon leaving, Gabbard endorsed Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., for the party's presidential nomination over Hillary Clinton.
